My mom sent me this awesome blog last week and though I'm not sure how many of you darling readers are actually turning your backyards into vegetable farms this summer, perhaps there are a few who would benefit:

Plus she posts an excellent backyard chicken resource. Did I mention we're getting chickens? I'm so excited. Sometimes I think we already have them, but really I just have their names picked out. We're actually waiting on our nifty modern henhouse to ship from the UK. Only a few more weeks...

ANYWAY, check out her blog. It makes me want to abandon all professional goals and dedicate my days to growing things up the sides of fences.

This is great AND timely. This weekend I just read a story in The New York Times about how more people are electing to grow their own food in light of the recession. People who have never gardened are giving it a shot! Hopefully this will be a change for the better in the way American's eat + live. Anyway, love this resource! Thanks for it!

Oh, Kristina, please divulge the details of your chicken coop (I apologize if I missed it in an earlier post). Matt and I are getting ready to build one (shh...don't tell the historic deed restriction enforcers). We need all the inspiration we can get (and your taste is exquisite!).
